You forgot the flying roaches almost the size of a small mouse. When we moved here, I started to take a little valance off the window area of the door leading out of the pool bath. An enormous flying roach zoomed by my head.

I learned the value of a good exterminator service in Florida. I always worried about the effects of those chemicals, but I'm more afraid of the bugs than the chems. They swear they're not harmful to humans. I guess we'll see.

Big bugs are fearsome critters. But last week I found yet another Brown Recluse on a sweater. I was careless but lucky, and he ended up on the outside of the sweater. He was trying to wake up when I spotted him crawling up the sweater when I looked in the mirror.
I saved him for Mrs Starbuck, so she could see what they look like.

Look for that tiny violin on their head. Other than that they are not scary looking. Sometimes they are called Fiddlebacks.

You live in Georgia, that's close enough to Florida. We won't make fun of our neighbor to the North. It's the those dastardly N'oreasters...I mean North Easterners.

You know why the St. John's river flows north?

Because Georgia sucks.

I got bit on the face as I slept by a brown recluse. That was 17 years ago and I still have a huge scar on my cheek under by left eye.
